Chapter 965 Wish I Could Be With You Everyday

Ever since she caught a fleeting glimpse of him three days ago, that mature and charming man had occupied all her thoughts, lingering in her mind incessantly.

She was the daughter of the White family, and countless young talents wished to marry her, but she didn't find any of them attractive.

Only this formidable figure from Aploth stormed into her world, making her heart flutter. She knew then he was the one for her.

She had never met him before, but his fame was so great that it struck one's ears like the roar of thunder.

This man, who had been a dominant figure on the international stage for years, held significant power. He was handsome, wealthy, and possessed a mature charm unique to successful men, which deeply captivated her.

Upon hearing this, Wilfred paused slightly, the pen in his hand momentarily still. A frown crept onto his face, and a sharp glint flashed in his eyes.

It seemed he was calculating the odds of his daughter marrying into the Luther family.

“Oh, Cersei, it's not that I disapprove of it. It's just that Mr. Luther sets his sights too high. Numerous princesses have sought to marry him, but they've all been turned down by him. Also, he is deeply in love with Bailey at the moment. Unless you can be better than Bailey, there's no way he will even give you a second glance.”

Moreover, being better than Bailey was pretty impossible.

All the women in the world combined probably couldn't compare to Bailey, who excelled in every field.

Cersei saw a flicker of emotion in her father's eyes and quickly instigated, “Dad, isn't surpassing the Yablon family and becoming the world's foremost poison-crafting family your lifelong dream? If I align myself with the Luther family, you can leverage their power to achieve your goals. I know that Mr. Luther will come to discuss our future cooperation with you tonight. So, could you please help me? Please? All I need is to spend one night with him. Given his character, he will surely take responsibility for me. I refuse to believe that a man of his stature and power has only ever been enamored with one woman in his entire life. Once I share a romantic night with him, he will surely accept me. Dad, I beg you. Please grant me this favor. It will also benefit you.”

Upon hearing her analysis, he had to admit that he was indeed moved.

“Even if you get to be with him, he might only see you as a lover, as a mistress. Are you willing to accept that?”

Cersei nodded solemnly. “Yes, I am willing.”

“All right, I'll help you fulfill this dream. Go back to your room and wait for news. Once everything is settled, I'll have the butler inform you.”

“Mm-hmm, thank you, Dad.”

As Cersei spoke, she stepped back to leave, a blush blooming on her cheeks.

The thought of that towering man, majestic as a grey wolf, loving her to bits later on filled her heart with sweetness.

Outside the White residence, a black sedan was concealed in the darkness of the night.

The car door swung open, and Artemis stepped out from the driver's seat.

No sooner had he stepped out of the car than Bailey emerged from the passenger seat.

Artemis looked at her somewhat helplessly and sighed. “Why would you follow me here in the middle of the night instead of enjoying a good sleep at home? Why insist on suffering by coming here with me?”

Bailey got around the front of the car, walked up to him, and wrapped her arms around his neck, grinning as she said, “The night you came back, you smelled of perfume, a woman's. I came to see if you're fooling around with some woman behind my back. Artemis, you're always denying it. Could it be that you're feeling guilty?”

Artemis scanned his surroundings, his gaze finally landing on the car. “Are you looking to do some vigorous outdoor activities?” he asked.

Bailey shuddered slightly, shot him an annoyed glance, and huffed, “It was just a joke—no need to take it so seriously. Besides, I don't mind doing some outdoor activities. Did you think I'd be scared of you?”

Artemis began to sneer, his laughter carrying the dangerous undertone of a predator.

He reached out and gently patted her cheek, leaning in to whisper in her ear, “If you dare, don't sneak off on your own later. Once I'm out, I'll drive the car deep into the mountains. Let's see how I deal with you then.”

Bailey absolutely adored his roguishly handsome look and stood on her tiptoes to kiss him. “Then you'd better hurry up and come back, I'll be waiting for you in the car.”

Artemis lowered his head to look at her, his gaze deep, subtly radiating a mysterious light.

“I suddenly don't want to go in. Let's head into the woods first.”

“You unprincipled leader.” Bailey punched him in the chest, admonishing, “Focus on the important matters. Don't let women cloud your judgment.”

Artemis sighed helplessly. “I truly wish I could be with you every day, inseparably entwined. But alas, there are too many troubles, and it seems the heavens are determined not to let me be an unprincipled ruler.”

“All right, enough with the chatter. Get on with your work.”

He said nothing else in response.

After watching Artemis enter the White residence, Bailey didn't return to the car. Instead, she swiftly moved to the eastern side of the surrounding wall, and with a flip, she got on top of the wall.

After spending these days with him, she felt much better physically. The depleted vitality also gradually returned.

Could being intimate with a man nourish the body? If that's the case, then doing it more would be better for me in the future.

Upon realizing this naughty thought in her heart, Bailey couldn't help but chuckle.

When did she become so corrupted?
